The average seems to be four.

But some rounds have six!!!

Now I have jusr re-read the 'final' D2D doc and whilst four seems to be allowable. Six is a no no.

Or have I got something wrong.

Or is this EA from RM?
Was it 6 then?

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

The most you can have is 4 door to door items but the vast majority have nowhere near this number as yet.

From Mid July it will move to 5 but a trial in the North and South East in early July will test the response rates from this as firms who use door 2 door to advertise are concerned that with more door to door contracts dropping on their mats that they will not get the response rate which they did previously.

Why cold calling with 3 but not with 1 ?

too much of a fanny on, plus I would have had to put them all together early in the week where time just doesnt permit this.
